Populations of Critically Endangered gharial (Gavialis gangeticus) in Nepal are restricted primarily within or adjacent to protected areas. There are few records of gharial occurrence from the Karnali River and its tributaries outside protected areas in southwestern Nepal but there is very little information available for gharials residing in the ...

The graphical abstract illustrates an integrative framework combining ensemble species distribution models, PCA‐env niche quantification, and MESS similarity mapping to assess niche dynamics across four globally invasive Opuntia species. Results reveal predominant niche conservatism (89.6%–98.2% stability) with soil nutrient availability identified as ...

This study addresses a critical gap in understanding how climate change will affect the foundation of giant panda habitat—its bamboo food resources—at a biologically meaningful scale. While previous assessments often relied on coarse‐resolution climate data, we present the first 30 m‐resolution projections for all 20 key bamboo species across the panda'

Rocky desertification exerts significant selective pressures on honeybee morphology. Honeybees undergo adaptive evolution in 19 genes such as glycogen biosynthesis. Genes like GBE promote organismal survival under desertification. ABSTRACT Unlike traditional desertification, rocky desertification is a distinct form of land degradation characterized by ...

Warming reduces the quality of forage resources in a Colorado meadow ecosystem
Abstract Rangelands provide ecosystem services that support approximately 30% of the human population. To maintain sustainable forage resources for animals in grasslands, it is essential to manage grazing pressures by adapting to changes in the quantity and nutritional quality of vegetation affected by climate change and subsequent shifts in plant ...
